Did he answer you? In what format? Did He give you something so you can physically prove that it happened, like a letter with a present post date? If not why does He tell you to preach His word, but leave you hanging without the ammo to be able to totally prove to the unbelievers that your message is true? Why doesn't it anger you that he makes you live on faith only? Wouldn't something more tangible be appropriate, so you can do a better job at spreading His message?

I do not believe in the Christian ideal of God, but I have prayed before, more than once, and have gotten them answered in a sense, such as asking for a sign when I'm desperate, or asking for strength when I'm weak. This foundation is purely faith alone, as who knows? Maybe my own will gave me the answer I was looking for.
I've also been disappointed many times, but what I basically believe in is that everything happens for a reason, and whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

1. not literally
2. oh I will say that at one time I was going to leave my husband and a voice came from no where and said "you haven't given him a chance" Which was so true- I married him for the wrong reasons and at the time I wasn't Christian and never loved him and never wanted to be with him and never gave him a chance. Until that day. No we are very happy together.
3. I bet my husband would say absolutely!
4.--------------------
5. The Holy Spirit is in my heart and I am full of his presence in me. Faith is not forced, you either believe or you don't.
6. There is nothing more tangible than the HS. It doesn't get any better than that. If you are a believer you see God in all things.

"All things bright and beautiful, all creators great and small. All things wise and wonderful the Lord God made them all...."
That's some silly little song but it is how I see thing with God.

We can spread his message but he takes care of calling you to be his.

I sure hope this helps in some way.

Yes,

Visions of things I did not previously know such as situations in someone's life. And they were proven to be true - this is physical evidence for me.

No anger on faith only. The non-christian has no more or less faith than the christian. It's just that the two believe differently. And in that regard, what could be more tangible?

Since the message is faith based, physical proof would be of no use. It wasn't of any use 2000 years ago when people actually saw Jesus do things - it wouldn't be any more useful today.

Even if God himself wrote a book for us to give to unbelievers, they wouldn't believe. Oh wait - been there, did that.

God always answers me , sometimes not in the way that I want or in the time that I would like but each and every time that it happens , I am amazed more than I can say to you ; after my divorce, (working mother of 4) , there were times that I didn't know where I was going to get the money to put food on the table and low and behold each and everytime, something so out of the ordinary , so out of the blue happened and I was able to get or receive the money just in the nick of time; I had a terrible employer who did something post taxes which would have cost me terribly, I put a question out to IRS as to how to amend my taxes and was told that my employer (lawyer) had violated the law and that I should tell them that they need to correct their mistake b/c if I did what I filed an amended return , they would have been audited and that they had to pay for my accountant to amend my taxes, pay the difference etc; if not for God in my corner and my faith , it would have turned out differently. I don't question God, he saved me from drowning in an isolated pool area where no one was there when I was two years old; each and every time, he is there, you can't demand God to act in your time and in your way but in his way , he knows better than us - He is God; if you look for proof , you don't believe and have faith and therefore are not rewarded for making yourself at or above him by making demands of your maker. Our minds can't even comprehend the things that he can and will do ; look what he has done already and asks for so little in return but still it beyond some people to give up even that little bit ; if you demand so much from people as your maker, you must be a lonely person; try it sometimes,just totally give up a problem to him , trust him and he has your back!!

God has indeed answered my prayers...He actually has given an excellent missionary tool to help spread His gospel. It is the Book of Mormon - it contains a special promise from God!... that anyone who wants to know the truth can read this book and ask God in the name of Jesus Christ if it is true...and God will manifest the truth of it to them by the power of the Holy Ghost...then they also will know! It is pretty easy and simple to do...yet this also preserves people's freedom to choose...they don't HAVE to read it or ask...

The real problem is that people aren't willing to learn the truth!
(and God doesn't FORCE people to do anything so if that is their choice God will let them)

Just as Moses lifted the brazen serpent and all who simply cast their eyes upon it were saved...in these days...it is a book to cast your eyes upon...but many then wouldn't even look...and today unfortunately it is the same situation...many aren't willing to look.

My question to you would be, "Which one?"

I have spoken with Hades, Hermes, Apollo, plus many more. I have also witnessed invocations where the god has taken possession of an individuals physical body so that they could speak through it. What the uninitiated would call, "trance channeling." And I have received a gift, in the form of a beautiful ring from Hecate. I wear it with pride and joy. It is my physical proof.

Dear Sir.
beerald.
The good part about talking to God, is that although my five senses can literally ear HIM(God), HIM knows best my potentials (five-senses), can be very powerful, though take from me!, Satan can anytime be listen?, God talk mentally, that means the product of the well achieved power of our actual five senses?, that will generate one more, which we don't yet have with us, Though God has it, and HIM, open us our mind to, for us to received his Word?, (communication), all inmate rial, maybe telephaty he uses?, which within our self's, we need to learn before put that in practice, is up to us, to learn right, without taking advantage of our potentials?, <>> and yes sometimes HIM(God)< has anger me, he has try me, though lol..., its very diferent to know God, and to Love HIM, ? me?, I know a little of the two way's. HIM is God, after all, but HIM is also Love, I live to serve HIM, no more not less.

He has used people in my circumstances--either someone calling me out of nowhere to give me a scripture, and pray or someone who has blessed us with money we needed and did not know our circumstance---God has spoken to me the most through His word though. AND God has even used my children to speak to me! They have said so many things that either convicted me or made me cry that I just needed to hear---and I just praise God for His continued faithfulness and love!
